Dazhi and Billups were full of excitement......

In a sense, Richard's ceremony to present the gold medal can almost be said to be their "coming-of-age ceremony".

A rite of passage from a college player to a professional footballer.

I haven't seen Dazhi for some days, Dazhi still has messy hair and looks messy, while Billups has a neat and bald head.

"Chauncey, do you remember what I told you before?" Richard asked Billups.

Billups nodded awkwardly: "Remember, coach ......"

"That's good! If you kid do that kind of thing, don't blame me for being rude to you kid! "Richard was afraid that Billups would follow the path of normal history......

That is, he did the sexual assault 3P thing in the fat head apartment.

"Dazhi, I'm going to enter the alliance tomorrow, I guess you'll have a surprise, take care of yourself, pay attention to your image, be more mature, this messy long hair, look at it and feel heartwarming!" Richard turned to Dazhi again.

Dazhi nodded, with a smile on his face, he could almost guess what Richard was talking about......

……

After sending off Dazhi and Billups, Richard breathed a sigh of relief that the second wave of West Lafayette players was about to enter the NBA!

A strong sense of accomplishment rose in Richard's heart.

It's better to say than Loops, mainly because Wang Zhizhi is here to give rise to expectations in Richard's heart, and I don't know what kind of achievements Wang Zhizhi can play in the NBA.

It can be said that joining the Philadelphia 76ers is the perfect start for Wang Zhizhi, with a high draft pick, and the team is covered by Iverson and Carlisle, and there will definitely not be any bullshit like other newcomers.

It's going to be a little smoother than Brad Miller's start anyway.

Dazhi's personality is good, not the kind of babbling character, but it's not a stuffy gourd, plus his current strength must be a lot better than under normal circumstances......

It can be said that the time and place are favorable, and Dazhi has been occupied, in this case, if it can't be played, then Richard will be completely out of line.

……

At seven o'clock the next night, Richard and Stevens hurriedly swallowed hot dog bread and rushed to the draft venue.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the venue, Richard was stopped.

"Coach Lee, I'm Stephen Jackson!"

"You remember me, don't you?"

The martial saint seemed to be waiting here to block Richard, and after seeing Richard, he ran to Richard with a surprised face.

Richard naturally recognized Martial Saint Jackson, but he frowned with a puzzled expression.

He didn't know what this guy was trying to do with him......

Wu Sheng saw Richard frowning, thinking that Richard had forgotten him, and hurriedly reminded him.

"Coach Li, do you remember? At that time, you asked people to invite me to Purdue! ”

"Do you remember, I'm that Stephen Jackson......"

"You were very optimistic about me at the time......"

The martial saint was a little anxious, and anxiously opened his mouth to explain who he was, trying to evoke Richard's memory.

Richard waved his hand directly, did not speak, and entered the venue with Stevens......

Wu Sheng looked confused, the reason why he stopped Richard here was actually not for no purpose.

In recent draft predictions, he has fallen to the second round, which is obviously a huge gap from his psychological expectations!

Originally, he felt that he might be selected for the Little Green House!

Anyway, if you're the one Richard looks down on, it's still worse......

But now when the draft prediction fell to the middle of the second round, he was really panicked, and he had no choice but to come up with a way to intercept Richard, trying to arouse Richard's impression of himself, and then see if Richard could choose himself with the eighteenth pick in the hands of the Trail Blazers!

Even if you can't be selected by the lotto show, the eighteenth pick is fine......

It's better than a draft position in the middle of the second round!

The second round of the show is just too hard to get ahead......

But what Wu Sheng never expected was that Richard seemed to have completely forgotten about himself, didn't pay attention to himself at all, and entered the venue directly.

This made Wu Sheng's heart a little desperate......

What he regrets most now is why he didn't agree to join Purdue in the first place, did he have a brain in the water at that time?!

If he joins Purdue, he will definitely not be so miserable right now!

You must know that the two players in Purdue's election this year are all the top 10 picks predicted, and even the top 3 picks predicted by Billups!

He felt that he was no worse than these two Purdue players, this was really not the blind confidence of the martial saint, the high school he attended was Oak Hill High School, a famous school in the United States.

basically belongs to the existence of UCLA in the NCAA, and even Lao Mei has an American drama called "Basketball Brothers", which is about Oak Hill High School......

The players who can join this high school are all proud of the sky!

If he had chosen to join Purdue at that time, he would have been in the top 10 now!

Thinking of this, Wu Sheng's compassion came from his heart, and his brain was really in water at that time......

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, if there is, the martial saint is willing to go back to the year when Richard extended an olive branch to himself, and firmly said to Richard "I do!" ”

……

After Richard and Stevens entered the venue, they found the Trail Blazers' box and waited for the draft to begin.

This draft meeting actually has nothing to do with Richard, and he is just here to join in the fun.

Soon, Stern appeared, and after a little chatter, it was announced that the draft had officially begun!

Minutes later, the Spurs submitted their selection.

"I announce that the San Antonio Spurs have selected Tim Duncan from Wake Forest University with the first pick in the first round!"

Stern took the stage to announce the selection of the top pick and the first pick Duncan......

Richard felt a little surprised in his heart, Duncan's big hand was taken by Popovich, which really made Richard envious and jealous.

……

The Philadelphia 76ers, the second pick, selected Keith Van Horn and will trade with the Nets after the draft.

"I announce that the Boston Celtics have selected Chauncey Billups from Purdue University with the third pick in the first round!"

History hasn't changed, and Billups was still drafted by Green with the third pick......

Billups, who was full of joy, came out with Silafayette's standard gold medal, and his face was full of joy.

Many people at the scene knew about the gold medal of West Lafayette, and couldn't help but envy Richard.

This young head coach has another high-pick rookie under his command, and the success rate of the Purdue roster he has built is really terrible.

Next, Antonio Daniels, Tony Barty, and Ron Moser were selected with the fourth, fifth and sixth picks, respectively!

It is worth mentioning that the sixth pick is still the signing of Green Kai, and the Moser they chose is actually quite good, the only flaw is the glass man, if he has this healthy body, he estimates that he has a chance to enter the All-Star.

As for the fourth and fifth Daniels and Barty, the strength of these two is much worse.

"I announce that the New Jersey Nets have selected Zhizhi Wang from Purdue University with the seventh pick in the first round!" Stern came out again and read out the seventh pick.

After a while, Wang Zhizhi appeared with a West Lafayette gold medal around his neck......

What makes Richard speechless is, what kind of look is Wang Zhizhi? !

The big back Wang Zhizhi ......
